Wrong way around.
You get me.

Les Breastfeeders

My fave name for a band today... yesterday's was bullshit holocaust

Patrick Watson

has a song called "The Great Escape". And he's playing a festival with the same name! Woooow! That's soo funny!

Ghosts

How many more bands with the word ghost in their name are going to be confirmed? How ace would it be if they all played the same show?

"Wow, how good were Ghost baby?"

"Ghost baby? They're on next, that was Black Cherry Ghost. Wasn't it?"

"Nah, their van broke down, they're still stuck somewhere. I tell you that was Ghost of a Thousand."

ooooooooooooooooh
